the sun finally made an appearance...

it popped out yesterday after another dreary morning of clouds and fog...

and it looks like its going to be sunny for a bit this morning...

 but they are saying more rain today...

there's a low mist out there now, with a red tinted horizon...

red in morning, sailor's warning...

but it was nice to drive in the sunshine...

if the bugs weren't so bad, it would be perfect...

they just sit our there waiting for me...

I know it...

when I was a kid, this was a common sight...

a chair under an apple tree, next to a garden...

the old man and I mowed our part last night and the mower guy should show up today...

maybe with pontoons on...

need to clean inside as well as weed, so either way, we will have something to do...

tonight is the Chamber's annual Jonah Fish Fry at the lake park...

so that's what we are doing for supper...

its all you can eat, but last year we could find a seat, so had to get it to go...

will see what happens this year...

with the bugs, it might be better to get it to go...

have a wonderful Saturday, rain or shine...

;0)

surgery is next Wednesday afternoon...

the horses have fly masks on...

the bugs are terrible here with all the rain we've had the past month...

a very wide patch of brown eyed susans...

saw the surgeon and was having a very good morning...

not sick at all...

it is a thingy but not cancer...

there is a sack in the hair folical that is filling...

and it can get bigger and it can turn into a boil...

or it could stay the same the rest of my life...

I opted to have it removed because of where it is, on the spine...

this will be done in his office with a local...

not a really big deal...

the guys are relieved its not cancer...

I am, too...

then onto the next doctor later this month...

we shopped and ate lunch, then went to goodwill...

found some fun things...

but it almost happened...

they let me use their bathroom...

and a good thing...

I would not have made it to another place to find one or made it home...

then I got sick just like that...

spent a miserable afternoon in bed...

but its all better, here early in the morning...

I am hoping when the sun comes up here soon...

that the sun is shining...

;0)

got a home alone day...

might just use it to catch up on my sleep...

;0)

today's the day...

later this morning, I see my surgeon to see what to do with this lump...

ready to get this first meeting over with so we know what's going on...

took a drive last night before supper...

the ears are making...

and the corn is tasseling...

some of the beans look good...

there's a little yellowing in there...

but some do not...

just too much rain...

but it makes for good fishing on the dam...

couldn't find the cows...

not sure if they were moved or taken to the sale barn...

the chicory is blooming everywhere...

rainy day with the high in the 60s yesterday...

so unreal...

but that's the last of the cooler days...

90s by the weekend...

loved wearing a sweat shirt today and even turned the heat on in the van while riding around...

;0)

DH took the day off, so he is going with me...

so far, so good...

just throwing in some more of the car show photos up here today...

got to the dr on time yesterday morning after a really bad start to the day...

the big D...

anyone with IBS knows how scary it is to go out in public when that hits...

but, I went anyway and was feeling as sick as I get with this pinched nerve thing going on...

he checked the lump on the spine and wasn't concerned at all with it...

probably a fatty cyst thing...

but if its pinching things, its gotta come off of there...

so see the surgeon on Thursday...

(by the way, he is back from Afghanistan!)

then he sent me for blood work and stomach xrays to make sure there was no intestinal blockage there...

and it was clear...

tried to tell him I blew the toilet away before heading out to see him...

all the tests were fine...

we had a super DJ for the car show...

he's Craig's friend's brother...

he did a wonderful job playing oldies rock and roll...

so fitting and having music on the square was just fun...

so, Thursday, the surgeon...

then later this month...

I have to see a tummy doctor at Terra Haute...

a specialist...

yippee...

you know what they do...

uh huh...

hoping this cyst thing removed will take care of that and I can call and cancel that appointment...

hanging low today...

too many busy days for me in a row...

got to slow down before I crash completely and it takes weeks to get back on my feet...

;0)

have a fun day...

our early morning country drive...

trumpet flowers line the roadways here...

that's a derailer...

they had the flag up on the other rail...

so they know to stop...

if they don't, this will derail a train...

they were doing work on the line up ahead...

this keeps the workers safe...

some of the fields are not doing so well with all the rain we have had...

wild flowers line the country roads...

more farmers have opted to not mow them...

leaving places for wild life...

not a lot went on yesterday...

rested up from the weekend and getting ready for this morning...

I have an 8am doctor's appointment...

there is a lump on my spine...

going in to have it checked...

just to make sure...

but, I am hoping I haven't done something to a disc...

I will let you know what we find out...

have a great day...
